Extended photo info

The extended photo information suddenly only appears in abbreviated form. The exposure information no longer appears.

There is a +very subtle+ disclosure triangle to the left of each of those headings.

Very, very subtle.

"Extended Photo Info" lost/invisible after migration to new Mac with 10.6.2

I just migrated my iPhoto library to my new Mac running OSX 10.6.2 from a Mac running OSX 10.3 I did this by copying the "Pictures/iPhoto Library" folder to an external drive. Today I tried to use "Show Extended Photo Info", and information appears to be lost? There is no Camera or Exposure information. I re-imported a photo from an old e-mail, and it does have the information! Do the Event/Location/Face features cause this to be deleted from my photos? I used these feature a lot before noticing anything was wrong.
Any ideas? Can I somehow check to see if the JPEG file still has the information? It is not too late to re-do the library import. I cannot live without the exposure information, as I like to play with my camera settings.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. After copying the library to the external HD did you open it directly with iPhoto? When iPhoto 09 converted that library to the latest version it would not have done anything to lose the EXIF data which is stored in the library's database files.
You didn't import that library into a new library did you? If you didn't then try rebuilding the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be untouched for further attempts at fixing or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

GPS Altitude Not in Extended Photo Info or EXIF Dat ahwne exported

Hi,
I have my own website that uses a Goggle Maps plugin to read and show GPS info for photos I upload. When I use Places to capture that info the Altitude info is not stored either in iPhoto's database or in the EXIF info for the photo when exported. Is there anyway get this info stored in the database and phot when exported?
The Google Maps plugin on my site makes use of the Altitude details to show a more close up image depending on the altitude chosen. Without this info the site just shows a extremely high level world map with a pin showing in the country where the picture was taken. Not particularly useful. So I have to go and edit each file on my website and manually add this info. Which is very time consuming.

Jennec
iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
There is no provision in iPhoto to add altitude at this time - iPhoto should maintain the EXIF data that is imported - if it is not then I certainly would report that as a bug
When I show extended photo info in iPhoto for photos it shows the altitude - I presume it exports - will test later

IPhoto 11 "Show Extended Photo Info" item under "Photos"

In my iPhoto 11, under Photos in the menu bar, the first item is "Adjust Date and Time".
I do NOT see "Show Extended Photo Info".
How do I make this menu item appear?

You should post in -> Forum : Installing and using iPhoto '11.
How do I make this menu item appear?
You don't.
Click the little white i at the lower right of the photo to see the photo info.

IPhoto editing GPS 'Extended Photo Info'/ 'Location'

iPhoto 09 V8
Photos in the library without the GPS Data in the 'Extended Photo Info'/ 'Location' wish to manually update.
Also edit the GPS field.
How can I get access to this field?
Also, when importing 'new' photos is there a process to add the GPS Data at this time?

True, but I am a new Mac user, just had the machine a week. Just wanted to get going....new toy and all that
I plan to spend a few weeks using it, finding software etc, adding /installing apps etc and then when the new HDD's (3x 1TB WD Blacks) arrive, do a complete fresh install of OS and software I need.
What with different video/audio/Vinyl ripping/GPS and system apps, I have probably installed/uninstalled about 30 apps in the last few days. A fair bit of crap seems to be left in User Libraries when apps are removed. I though I had left software that leaves bits of itself all over the system when it is removed behind with Windows, but obviously not So once I find my way around a bit, I will be doing a clean OS re install once i find software I am happy with.
Was planning to create the iPhoto library, back it up re install Leopard and drag it back.
If I gotta do it again , then so be it....now to find some geotagging software that I like.
Photoshop Elements....that can edit metadata/EXIF tags in Windows at leastmaybe it will be the same in Mac?
Aperture? I have bought that, have not looked at it yet though.
Was expecting a much easier job of it. All the hype I have been hearing about Macs from mates made me thing theywere real easy to use, did not crash/freeze up etc. Mine has hung 4 times already, twice on shutdown, and also randomly when using iPhoto.

Does anyone know what the numbers refer to in the Brightness line of the Extended Photo Info window?

Search extended photo info?

I have years of photos organized in iPhoto '09, and have been trying to find a way to do searches using the data included in the "extended photo data" with no luck. I need to separate photos by camera used, and can't figure this out. Any ideas, or would an upgrade to Aperture be in order?

Hi thomtom: I use iPhoto '08, so it may be slightly different, but try this. From the File menu > New Smart Album > From the resultant menu select "Camera Model" and then select the particular model of camera you wish. The pictures will then sort by the specific camera model.
Hope this helps

IPhoto 11 "Show Extended Photo Info"

This selection, under "Photos" in the menu bar, is NOT THERE in my iPhoto 11.
My first selection is "Adjust Date and Time".
What is happening here?

All of that information is now in the Info Window. Click on the 'i' lower right.

About Extended Photo Info.

When I select a photo and and to look at the info it's all there EXCEPT under Exposure (what I'm really interested in) there's nothing. And that's so too with photos that have been on iPhoto for years and used to have that info. What's going on, please?

Sorry folks --- the answer is indicated in the More Like This list to the right. When one goes to Exposure there is actually an almost invisible triangle to the left of the word that one has to click. Duh.

Extended photo information

I am using a new camera. A Canon Powershot SX20 IS. I am using the iphoto application to bring photos from the camera to my computer. ( Not the Canon software)
After I have imported a photo, when I go to Extended Photo information, I get very limited information. For example I do not get ISO readings.
I was watching a presentation by another person today on Iphoto. She got much more information from the Extended Photo Information drop down menu? the information is useful in improving your photo shooting. It just wasn't there on my computer. It was there in my camera, but I erased the images after uploading them. Is there a way to access this information in iphoto? Or, do I have to use the Canon application to upload the information?
I usually transfer photos from Iphoto to Photo shop for editing.
Thank you.

with no information it is hard to say
just to be sure that you have done it correctly since you do not tell what you have done - select a photo and under the photos menu ==>show extended photo info - make sure that the sections you want are open - there is a VERY light open close triangle just to the left of the section name

Print Module: Auto-Rotate to fit and Photo Info Text

When in the print module with "Auto-Rotate to fit" selected, A landscape images correctly rotates to fit the page, but the text that is selected in the "Photo Info" setting does not rotate. Thus, the text appears along the left side of the image .
Any suggestions to get it to appear correctly on the bottom?
Also, Font size is selectable but not font type.

What OS?

Print Module - Page Panel: Page options & Photo Info lost

In the print module there are only 4 features left now in my final release version of LR3:
1. Page Background colour
2. Identity Plate
3. Watermarking
4. Cut Guides.
Victoria Bampton described also the features with a screenshot of LR3b2 in her "Missing FAQ-Rough Cut" (page 366):
4. cut guides did not exist, but instead Page options with tick boxes, then 5. Photo Info drop down box, then 6. Font Size.
What has happened?
How do I cover the following use case: Create an invitation with photos and own free text about date/time/venue?
Please don't answer "export a jpg from Lightroom and then use MS Word or some other editor".
From the beta phase I got the impression that creating such a pdf should be possible directly from Lightroom.

How do I cover the following use case: Create an invitation with photos and own free text about date/time/venue?
Lightroom's text layout features might not be as powerful as you might thought. You're option are:
Use a custom Identity plate to add some static text or graphic anywhere on the page.
Use watermarking to add some static text or graphic anywhere on the photo.
Use Photo Info to add some metadata, such as IPTC location or capture time, somewhere around your photo.

How to print Photo Info in the Custom Print Package

I am using LR CC, latest version on a Windows7 PC.
I am trying to print Photo Info in the Custom Print package. I have no trouble selecting Photo Info in the Single Image/Contact Sheet Layout Style, but when I switch to the Custom Print Package, the Photo Info check box in the Page panel, disappears. I can't find any reference to this in the manual as to why this would occur, or not be available.
Appreciate any help with this matter.
Best Regards
Steve

Hi,
Have a look at: Lightroom Help | Print module layouts and templates
Only on the Single Image and Contact Sheet layouts can you " ... print information about photos, such as the filename, title, caption, and keywords ..."

How can I put current date and time in Photo Info (Print module)?

I often use the Photo Info option in the Print Module to caption my proofs with File Number plus the date and time the print is made. This allows me to match up the print to the History state for the image, so I know which print version I'm looking at. I've always wanted to get Lightroom to automatically enter the date and time the print is made. It obviously knows this info, since it stamps the History state with date and time. Currently I have to modify my caption manually with Custom text each time I make a print. This is a major PITA. Has anyone figured out how to get Lightroom to do this?

There is a Date/Time title in the titles browser, does just what it says...

Hi - for any photo, info in mountain lion shows a different file size than Photoshop does. I've tested with CS3 and CS6 and get the same problem. Doesn't happen with CS3 and OSX10.4 or any previous versions of Photoshop and OSX. Anyone know why?

Hi - for any photo, info in mountain lion shows a different file size than Photoshop does. I've tested with both CS3 and CS6 on 10.8.2 and get the same problem. This doesn't happen with CS3 and OSX10.4 or any previous versions of Photoshop and OSX. Anyone know why?

this one is actually a really rare symptom of a flaky connection to the ipod on a Windows PC. there's more going on in terms of hardware on nanos and 5th gens than in the earlier models ... so if the connection is flaky to precisely the right/wrong degree, itunes will see the ipod, but misidentify it as an earlier version of ipod.
tracking down the cause of the flakiness can be tricky ... as you already know ...
just checking. have you tried connecting with a different (known-good) USB cable? does that seem to have any impact on the rate of occurence of the problem?
